Possible reasons for the δ 13 C anomaly of Lower Proterozoic sedimentary carbonates
Detailed isotopic study (δ 13 C, δ 18 O) of Lower Proterozoic sedimentary carbonates from biostratigraphically dated successions in Karelia (Russia) revealed a large positive δ 13 C anomaly (average δ 13 C‐value constitutes approximately +10‰ PDB) at 2.3 Byr ago and a huge drop of δ 13 C‐values in t...
